Claiming An Education

This short story Pointed out alot of important things about womens roles in college. It did not just look at the role women played in college today but it also talked about how there role has changed over time. It said that higher education has only been offered to women for about the last hundred years no matter there race or wealth. Reading this really surprised me because in my eyes i see women being treated as equal to men in all the classes iv'e ever been in and it is hard for me to think that only about a hundred years ago there were no women at all getting a higher education. It also kinda surprises me that there is still only a few women in the upper levels of faculty and administration in most institutions. I feel that there should be an equal amount of women and men throughout the administration of an institution. The author also talks about how and education should be be claimed and not received and i feel that is a very true statement because nothing should aver just be handed to someone they always should have to work for everything they get in life.
